Just read that on CNN. Wonder if there will be some kinda memorial service?
Yeah when I read that I was like "she was still alive?!"
The only time I learned about her was as a "historical figure"

Rest In Peace, Rosa.
Hrmm. I thought she was dead. It's amazing how much I don't care.

I'm sure there will be some sort of thing like that. If not a memorial service, then like one of those things where people walk for cancer or w/e. It would just be in her memory.
